"The Majors: Pro Baseball" is a sports simulation video game developed for the Sega Game Gear handheld system, released in 1992. It offers players an in-depth baseball experience, where they can engage in the full spectrum of baseball gameplay, including pitching, hitting, and fielding. With its detailed pixel graphics and fluid animations, the game sought to replicate a realistic baseball atmosphere that was quite immersive for the technology available at the time.

The game includes various modes such as Exhibition, All-Star, and Pennant Race, allowing players to tailor their gameplay experience to their preferences, whether they are looking for a quick game or an extended season play. A key feature of "The Majors: Pro Baseball" is its strategic depth, offering players control over numerous aspects of the team management, including lineup and pitching rotation, adapting to injuries, and responding to in-game situations. This title stood out in the early '90s for its attempt to deliver a comprehensive portable baseball experience, a challenge given the limited hardware capacities of the Sega Game Gear. It is often remembered for its role in pushing the boundaries of sports games on handheld devices during that period.
